Bennett of the Detroits has caught in six

Arson would not play the first New York
game unless Umpire Brady showed his Gre
dentials.
The New Yorks have found prize in Raj
uey, their new third baseman,i if he continues
his work of Thursday.
Umpire Brady's work in his first game
was highly praised excepting in one decision,
which gave Chicago her only run.
Rainey, the new third baseman of the New
Yorks, had record of put outs, 13 assists,
0 errors on July 81, 1885, when playing third
base for the Torontos.
The Philadelphias are playing a remark
ably strong game of late, which makes Man
ager Harry Wright smile. This team is like
" to make strong pull for the peunant.
Never in the history of the Boston club have
three games scheduled for consecutive days
been postponed by bad weather. These
games were with the Chieagos the fore part
of this week.
About 80, 900 persons witnessed the ex-
citing games of base ball that were played in
New York, Philadelphia, Boston and Wash
ington on Thursday. That means that not
far from $50, 900 was expended in one day
in pursuit of this pleasure. And this record
is paralleled on almost every pleasant day.
Base ball is not only great fun, but it is a
great business.
Charles Bohn, the young Cleveland boy
who is pitching for the Mansfield club, &C
colnplished great feat August 23d. He re-
tired the Canton club without hit in the
entire game, and, more wonderful still, not a
single Canton player reached first base.
Only 81 batters came to the plate, and Bohn
struck out nine of them.-Cleveland Leader.

Redemption of Trade Dollars - The
End of a National Experiment.

Redemption of Trade Dollars - The
End of a National Experiment.
The last day on which trade dollars will be
redeemed is September Sd. After that date
owners will be able to dispose of them for
bullion only. On enquiry at the Office of
Bunnell & Scranton it was stated that they
should not purchase any after September LIST,
as they would not be able to get them to the
sub treasury if received after that time.
The United States treasury will not re-
deem trade dollars with standard dollars
after September Sd. The presentation of
trade dollars for rede mption has reached
81, 500, 900. A few facts about the history
of the trade dollar follows: The end
of the redemption of trade dollars closes the
experiment of attempting to supersede the
Mexican dollar in China with IN American
dollar, which at one time seemed likely to
succeed. The result is not a total failure,
and more persistent attempt might have
been more completely successful. Secretary
Boutwell, recommended in 1872 that the
United States government offer to the East
trade dollar international dollar marked
with its own weight, substitute for ship
ments of silver bars, which were then the
usual form of settling balances in China
from San Francisco. The dollar was designed
of 400 grains weight, or a little HEAVIER than
the Mexican dollar, and was, of course, uni
form. The result showed that the idea was
entirely practicable, for within a few years
nearly $25, 000, 900 of these coins were made
at the mint for those who brought silver and
were shipped to China in payment for our
imports. They became current in southern
China, where many millions of them remain
and where they all would have stayed but for
one little oversight in their legal status in
this country and the peculiar situation here
Congress had Inadvertently provided that
this trade dollar, which was not intended for
an American coin, should be legal tender to
the amount of So. Although this legal tender
quality was repealed at the enl of three
years, yet the American people had been 80
long without metallic money that the silver
dollar was at first gratefully received; and if
dollar of 4121E grains was acceptable, why
not still more one of 420 grains? In the
meantime, the paper dollar was approximat-
ing to gold, and carried up with it everything
which passed for a. dollar. Hence the
American market became a better one for
the trade dollar than the Chinese, and it
drifted home to the amount of several mil
lions. Moreover, it was obvious that the
same government which had put out The
trades as legal tender would be ultimately
bound in equity to redeem them as such and
this has now been done for those in this
oountrv

1t affords me pleasure to give you this report OF
the cure of our little grandchid by your CUTICURA
REMEDIES. When six months old his left hand be-
gan to swell and had every appearance OF a large
boil. We poulticed it, but all tor purpose. About
five months after it became a running sore. Soon
other sores formed. He then had two of them on
each hand and as his blood became more ana more
impure it took less time for them to break out A
sore came the chin, beneath the under lip, which
was very offensive. His head was solid Scab,
discharging great deal. This was his condition at
twenty two months old when undertook the care
of him, his mother having died when-he was little
more than year old OF consumption (scrofula OF
up if he fell down and could not move when in bed,
having no use of his hands. l Immediately COM
menced with the Cuticura Remedies, using the
Cuticura and Cuticura Soap freely and when he had
taken bottle of the Cuticura Resovent his head
was completely cured and he was improved in every
way. We were very much encouraged and con-
tinued the of the Remedies for year and
forming in each of these five deep just be-
fore healing, which would finally grow loose and
were taken out; then they would heal rapidly. One
of these ugly bone formations preserved. After
ly cured, and is now, at the age of six years,
strong and healthy child. The scars his hands
must always remain; his hands are strong, though
we once feared he would never be able to use them
All that physicians did for him did him good. All
who saw the child before using The Cuticura Rene
dies and see the child now consider it q wonderful

are at liberty to use them. MRS E. 8. BRIGGS,
